I haven’t followed as closely this year, but will Disco support Levi or that Contador fellow?
Both are positioned well to take the yellow.

Since there are no more mountain stages, I expect the team will just play it safe and let both riders take their best shot against each other and against Evans in the final time trial. I'd be (pleasantly) surprised if Disco launched any kind of a serious attack in the remaining flat stages.
But if any rider is within a minute of the leader going into Sunday, we might actually have a race into Paris rather than the usual promenade.
